She just sits there as the night grow still

And they groom him for life

And they set him on a path where he's bound to get ill

Then they bury him with stars

Sell his body like they do used cars

She just sit there facin' the hill

C
Heartbreaker, backbreaker

May be an actor in a plot

Till your error you clearly learn
C Am
Now he worships at an altar
G C
Of a stagnant pool
C Am G
And when he sees his reflection he's fulfilled
F C
Oh, man is opposed to fair play
C G F
He wants it all and he wants it his way
Am F Am F
Now, there's a woman on my block
Am F Am F
She just sit there as the night grow still
C G C Fmaj7 Csus4 C
She say who gonna take away his license to kill
